About Brittany
Brittany Meredith brings five years of clinical practice as an LCPC licensed in Illinois to support people navigating stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar symptoms, ADHD, and a broad range of relationship and life challenges.
Background and approach
She works with concerns including self-esteem, motivation, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting and family dynamics, sleeping difficulties, anger, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. Additional areas of focus include abandonment, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, body image, and communication and control issues.
Her approach centers on helping clients identify and build from existing strengths while collaborating to address the challenges that get in the way of a more satisfying life.
Brittany draws from client-centered therapy to prioritize each person’s perspective, and integrates evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy along with mindfulness and existential ideas to tailor care to individual needs. She aims to make the first steps toward change manageable and empowering.
Licensed as an LCPC in Illinois (IL LCPC 180017734), she offers support in English and accepts international clients. Brittany frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors each person’s expertise about their own story while providing structure and tools to move forward.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-centered therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and perspective, offering a space where the client’s voice guides the pace and focus of work while the therapist provides empathic support and validation. It is helpful for people seeking an affirming, collaborative relationship that prioritizes their lived experience.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and skill-building. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep-related concerns because it teaches concrete strategies to manage symptoms.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) blends skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness to help with strong emotions and relationship difficulties. It is useful when clients need structured tools to reduce reactivity and improve coping.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative exploration helps tailor sessions so techniques feel relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, enabling people to engage from different locations and schedules. These formats make it easier to access consistent support, practice skills between sessions, and adapt communication style to what works best for the individual.
